French and Indian war frontier Project.

Back to the 18th century this week for a new project. This project has a variety of manufacturers. Each set of figures are for separate groups for a French and Indian war skirmish game. There will be 8 groups ranging in size from 3-8 figures each. A variety of manufacturers are used; Conquest, Old Glory, Front Rank among them. The Frontier project update. Introducing the 'Gray' family. 28mm OG and Conquest. Cabin and terrain from my collection. Frontier Project. Group 'civilian/milish'. Gathering to form a common defense. This group contains 25/28mm Front Rank figurines. More Families on the frontier. A couple of the castings remind of characters from the 1939 John Ford classic film Drums Along the Mohawk! Definitely a Henry Fonda and Claudette Colbert likeness among them. Frontier project final edition. Here is the White family prepared to defend themselves from the 'Savages'. A war party burns its way thru the settlements.
